Forming of a Red Knight auxiliary unit.
-
Council,
I am penning this so it does not come as a surprise later, enclosed is a copy of this poster circulating the common spaces and beyond right now.
In order we might better keep on the same page, I am putting together this force to allow people who would otherwise show up to these actions an easy way to be involved without having to be part of the Council, yet to also act as a hedge against the poorly trained assemblage of adventurers that show up to these same actions.
The group, still unnamed at the moment, will be drilled and trained as any military unit would with an eye towards unconventional tactics and activities. They will work with the Council and support major actions, and when not conducting these activities, they will be working to further our campaign goals such as harrying enemy supply lines and the like when we have established those footholds.
They will be a faith based organization, since, with exception of the Lathandrites, I have seen precious little from other city based faiths in offering succor or manpower to the war effort. I will be leading the push as it is our duty to conduct the business at hand; this group will remain within the Faith and answer to it. If something has occurred that is objectionable, I will handle its discipline.
I am joined in this effort by a paladin of the faith, Rynn, who will be assisting me in all matters related to the group. She will be acting as its primary leadership once the pieces are in place and things are moving.
The faith will fund this endeavor entirely from our coffers and forage off the spoils of activities against the Horde to replenish them. This group will be small in the grand context, but their missions will be aimed at keeping the enemy on the back foot during Council raids. Acting as the distraction and supplementary force, or offering leadership in other situations.
Questions or concerns can be directed my way at any time.
Sincerely,
Holy Strategist Keline Hallenthen

Sounds like you've got a good plan and your hands are full, Keline. I hope this works out for you. But what is it you want or need from the Council for this?

Not terribly much, I simply wanted to cut off questions of what I am doing or fears I am somehow going to conduct a holy war in the city or some such nonsense. Some folks have pointed out the appearance of such a force may concern people, I just want to head that line of thinking off before someone gets the wrong idea.
It's easier to spend a few coppers on ink now than fears and concerns that may turn violent later.
